labels with different colour

Good morning, I have labels with different colours in the same project.
What happens is that the guideline appears in all of them in black (2) and the only possibility to put the guideline in the same colour as the text (which is in orange) is to modify the view graphics per element (1).
If I change the colour in the object style, all the labels acquire that colour.

Is there any way to make the colour of the guideline match the colour of the text?
Thank you very much

Only way seems to be an override....

Like @Simon_Weel mentions, it will need a override.

 

You can do it manually, but if it's multiple views + multiple elements per view it becomes a lot of work.

I assume it's a certain type that's the non-black color, then use a named Selection set.

 

This selection set acts like a ViewFilter and can be assigned to the viewtemplate to override the element's color and it's leader along with it.

Select all the Tag of that type in the model and save it as a selection set, the set has be updated if new tags are added, by selecting all tags again and save under same name (overwrite previous to retain the set overrides in viewtempates)

 

Below a quick link on how to make these selection sets:

Hope it helps,

thank you very much for your help. The truth is that we hadn't thought about this other solution. I already know another way to make this change of colour of the labels.
Thank you very much for your help.

Create a new tag type that you will only use for that specific purpose.

You can then do a select all in entire project and override them all at the same time.

 

The selection Set option is also good as you can use it in view templates but it is a bit more to set up.

Hi @Mike.FORM ,

 

Selecting all tags (of a specific type etc) in the project and then override them manually, will only work for the tags in the active view, the tags in all other view won't get the override, unless something changed in Revit 2024?

@TripleM-Dev.net you are correct, I forgot about that.
